The poster strives to explore the depth of relationships between individuals in a society evolving around one's virtual presence in social media. Virtual friendships, generating feedback expressed in the thumbs-up symbol of “likes”, often satisfy an individual's basic need for acceptance and belonging. These relationships however, often prove to be superficial or insufficient, when actual help in a critical situation is needed. The poster focuses on reflecting the coldness of social internet interactions, and their lack of authenticity, from behind the glass window of media devices.
